MarkP Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share #223 Posted November 7, 2015 Dee, I'm really enjoying these beautiful MM/APO-50 landscapes. I can see why you've not taken the lens off this camera. Mark 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppyman Posted November 7, 2015 Share #224 Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Adam, most of my Australian Landscape photographs were shot on non-Leica cameras so you'll just have to suffer, but Ill see what else I can find on film Geoff, those photos of Remarkable Rocks (Kangaroo Island, SA) for the uninitiated are indeed remarkable! Is the unnamed spit of land connecting the North and South of Bruny Island? Mark Hi Mark, thanks and yes the Neck Lookout on the isthmus between North and South Bruny Island is correct. It's funny what attracts attention in the Forum. I haven't shot landscape work for several years but this group is interested and responsive looking at each others work. Maybe I need a new holiday somewhere in the (Australian ) wild! Maybe I need a real wide for my S as well ;-) Edited November 7, 2015 by hoppyman 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great fun, very knowledgable guides and no matter which side of the boat one is on they move about so everyone gets the best view, and of course spectacular scenery. We planted ourselves immediately behind the clear perspex windbreak half way back the overgrown zodiac and popped out with my camera as necessary and safe. As you have seen I've already posted two or three photos from Bruny Island, more to come.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

platypus Posted November 8, 2015 Share #231 Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) Trout stream, the Monaro's late winter colours, bleached native grass and smokey horizon. M9/75 Lux On the subject of the film versus digital debate may I say that this is a digital image because that's what I choose to shoot at this juncture of my photographic life, several valid reasons for this, not least of which is convenience. I'm pleased to be able to assure the viewer, who may live in another country, that the colours of my digital (colour) Australian landscape photographs are as accurate, real and "natural" as they would be were I still a film buff, perhaps more so due to the increased control I have over the image in pp. Each to her/his own then!

hoppyman Posted November 9, 2015 Share #234 Posted November 9, 2015 Lots of classical receding planes in the best tradition. Some Ansel clouds would have been wonderful in that clear sky. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
platypus Posted November 9, 2015 Share #235 Posted November 9, 2015 Govetts Leap, Blue Mountains. Mark, A lovely view of the escarpments rolling away into the hazy distance.....and nice to see the Blue Mountains all in green for a change. This shot neatly captures the way these mountains must have appeared to those first explorers attempting to cross them; an utterly daunting barrier. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

david strachan Posted November 10, 2015 Share #240 Posted November 10, 2015 Hi Dee the Platypus What Mark said. Most would crop the expansive sky if there where no clouds. A wisp of a fading vapour trail. The 'roos ... I like the way we see the different stances. You got pretty close there, being such skittish animals. Did you pop up from behind a boulder? cheers Dave S 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
